Mō te tūranga | About the role

As a Software Specialist (DevOps Engineer), you’ll provide senior technical leadership within your squad while enabling how we build, deploy, and operate software at scale.

This is a hands-on engineering role focused on CI/CD, automation, and cloud platform delivery. You’ll work across the full delivery lifecycle - from build and test through to deployment and production support - ensuring our systems are reliable, secure, and continuously improving.

You’ll collaborate closely with engineers, platform teams, and product stakeholders to remove friction from delivery, improve release quality, and enable faster, safer deployments across our technology landscape- including supporting integration and delivery across platforms such as Salesforce.

Key Responsibilities Include

• Designing, building, and optimising CI/CD pipelines to support continuous delivery
• Driving automation across build, test, deployment, and release workflows
• Working across cloud and platform environments, supporting scalable, containerised systems
• Supporting CI/CD and release automation across enterprise platforms, including Salesforce (e.g. SFDX, Copado, Gearset)
• Embedding engineering standards, quality practices, and reliability controls across delivery
• Supporting production systems, incident response, and ongoing platform stability
• Collaborating across squads to improve delivery efficiency, system resilience, and release outcomes
• Coaching and mentoring engineers to uplift DevOps capability and ways of working
• Driving continuous improvement across tooling, processes, and engineering practices
